Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods described herein are configured to allow use of network addresses in an internal or private network that are outside of private address ranges as specified by communication protocols (e.g., IPv4). In some embodiments, the systems, apparatus and methods described herein are further configured for use of placeholder addresses to facilitate communication with external computing devices that may have network addresses that overlap the local address space.

Abstract: Systems, apparatus and methods described herein are configured for receiving a network parameter request (e.g., a DHCPv6) request from a specific client and processing the network parameter request to facilitate allocation, assignment, etc., of one or more specific network parameters to the specific client based on a unique identifier (e.g., MAC address) of the specific client. In some embodiments, the systems, apparatus and methods described herein are further configured for processing and relaying the network parameter request to a network parameter server (e.g., DHCPv6 server) to enable one or more specific network parameters to be assigned to the specific client.
